Vadivelu to star in Vishal’s Kathi Sandai
After some failed attempts to play hero, popular actor Vadivelu returns to what he does best -- comedy.
The actor will be seen with Vishal in Kathi Sandai.
Since the 2011 assembly elections, when Vadivelu had aggressively campaigned for the DMK against Vjayakanth, the actor has been appearing in fewer roles.
His last two films as hero, Tenaliraman and Eli, were major duds at the box office.
Vadivelu and Vishal have previously worked together in the 2006 film Thimuru.
